Chapter 3

Views:

Due to the problems left over from history, for a long time, the Kowloon Walled City was a "three nos" zone that neither China, Britain nor Hong Kong cared about. , became synonymous with poverty and crime in the special era. Until the ICAC was established in 1974, even the police would not come in the Walled City.

In reality, the Walled City of Kowloon had been demolished in 1993 to build a park. Qiao Wen had never seen this famous slum with his own eyes. But the legend about it has been passed down for a long time in later generations, becoming a source of inspiration for many artists, and even once becoming a holy place for cyberpunk lovers.

Currently used, it is the most complete and best-used app for listening to books. It integrates 4 major speech synthesis engines, over 100 kinds of timbres, and is an artifact that supports offline reading. huanyuanapp.org

At this time, a plane from Kai Tak Airport rumbled past the roof of the tenement building next to it, casting a large shadow.

Chauvin recalled how William Gibson, the father of cyberpunk, described it-"The walled city stands at the end of a runway, waiting to be demolished. It has always been the home of butchers, unlicensed dentists and drug dealers... Those cluttered windows are like Dream nests, they seem to absorb all the crazy energy of Kai Tak Airport, they suck energy like a black hole."

This is a city within a city that has inspired countless creators, but there is an essential difference between literary and artistic creation and real life.

At this moment, even an adventurer like Qiao Wen felt the oppression and anxiety that could not be dispelled.

After all, he was born under the red flag and grew up under the red flag. He has a wealthy family and has never suffered materially. His adventures are all desert jungles and the like, and he has never gone deep into the real slums.

And now, not only has he gone deep, but he is also one of them.

It can be said to be very... exciting.

He calculated in his mind that it is now 1972, which is the last two years before the patrolling police stationed in the Walled City, that is to say, it is still the darkest era of the Kowloon Walled City.

Fortunately, he has not only inherited the memory of the original body, but also has a little knowledge of the plot of the original book, so he will not panic just because he appears in such a place.

When his head was spinning, Haozai on the side suddenly reminded him: "By the way, Ah Wen, you are awake now, or go back and report to grandma first. You have been in a coma for the past few days and you have not woken up. Uncle Hua is still awake." I decided that you might be dying, and my brother and I didn't dare to tell Grandma, we only said that you are here for medical treatment, you can't see the wind, and let her not come to see you for the time being."

It was only then that Qiao Wen remembered that he was an orphan who grew up with his grandmother. Grandmother opened a stall selling dry goods to make a living, and it was not easy to bring up the sick child of Yuanshen. Originally, Xiao Qiaowen was considered to be up to date. He didn't study hard like most children in the Walled City. His grades in school are excellent, and he just graduated from Form 5 this year. However, due to financial reasons, he did not go to university, but planned to find a serious job to support his family.

Unexpectedly, before submitting his resume, he fell ill, and when he woke up, he became the current Qiao Wen.

Qiao Wen thought for a while, and said: "Hao Zai, I want to go outside the city wall to get some air first, and you can tell my grandma that I'm fine, so she can rest assured that the files will be closed soon, and you can help her by the way." Take it."

Hao Zi said: "Are you going out alone? Then how can I rest assured, what if you faint on the road and no one cares?"

Qiao Wen turned to look at him, squeezed a smile on his lips, patted his shoulder and said, "I'm fine, don't worry, you've been taking care of me every day for the past two days, and you're tired, so help grandma take care of me." Now, go back and rest early."

Haozai stared blankly at the person in front of him. Ah Wen had a sad face all year round. He couldn't remember how long he hadn't seen his smile. He just felt that this smile brightened the cloudy sky.

He felt that Ah Wen was really different, but he still couldn't tell why, but he was very happy for the difference in his heart, so he nodded subconsciously and followed his words: "Be careful yourself, don't forget Go back to Uncle Hua and drink the medicine."

"Know."

Hao Zai was about to turn around when Qiao Wen stopped him: "Do you have any money?"

"There are still ten dollars."

"Okay, give it all to me."

Watching the skinny boy trot away, Qiao Wen followed his memory and walked in another direction.

The Walled City is divided into east and west districts. The west district is where good people like them live, while the east district is where the triads are rampant, where pornography, gambling and drugs gather. Ordinary people dare not step in.

Now the society controlling here is called Hexing Society, which claims to be the orthodox of Hongmen.

Looking at the entire Hong Kong city, the Hexing Society with less than a thousand members can only be regarded as a small society, but because it is not under the control of the police, the situation is very special. People dare to provoke, it can be called the most arrogant society in Hong Kong City.

Because the Hexing Society has dominated the city for many years, almost everyone is proud to join the Hexing Society. A good boy like Qiao Wen is simply a rare animal.

As for Chen Jianan, he is naturally also a member of the Hexing Society.

In Qiao Wen's memory, the original body was very disgusted with the fact that Chen Jianan was gangster, and the two had a big fight because of this. It was Chen Jianan who swore that joining the club was only to better protect the neighbors, and would never be contaminated with pornography, gambling and drugs, and the two reconciled as before.

However, walking by the river all the year round, there is no one who does not get wet shoes, let alone in this chaotic era.

Chen Jianan is now just the bottom four or nine youngsters of Hexing Society, but if he succeeds in the assassination tonight, he will be directly promoted by Zhao Shanhai to become a red stick, and as a red stick, the blood on his hands will only increase.

Qiao Wen searched Chen Jianan's ferocious deeds in his mind. In the original book, he was a violent man. I am afraid that the original body is not dead, and it will be difficult to stop him from becoming a villain.

He breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to walk out along the dirty alleyway.

The Walled City is not big, and after walking for a few minutes, they went outside.

But the distance of just a few hundred meters is a world of difference. Inside are dark slums, while outside is a thriving metropolis.

His eyes fell on a row of rickshaws waiting for customers on the side of the road.

Today is the early 1970s. Although buses, trams, minibuses and taxis are already common, this kind of convenient and cheap rickshaw is still a means for some low-level people to make a living.

Qiao Wen estimated the place he was going to. It was not far away, and he estimated that it would take more than 20 minutes to walk. However, with his current body, he had already reached the limit after just a few minutes of walking.

He squeezed the only ten yuan in his hand, walked slowly to a rickshaw, and said to the driver: "Yau Ma Tei Furong Tea House."

In fact, today is not only a turning point for Chen Jianan, the villain who is full of evil, but also a turning point for the life of the hero Lin Zihui.

Lin Zihui's father, who was about to be killed by Chen Jianan, was a wealthy man in Hong Kong City, named Lin Zhaoming. However, the fate of the protagonist of the novel is not destined to be so smooth, so Lin Zihui is not the real son of a rich man, but the illegitimate child of Lin Zhaoming and the Tea House La Traviata (the old name for the waitress in the tea house).

Like all protagonists in novels with rough backgrounds, Lin Zihui's Camellia mother died of illness not long after giving birth to him. And because his own father relied on his original wife to make his fortune, and his wife and children are not easy to save money, even if it was to protect him, he would not take his illegitimate son home. So Lin Zihui has always been raised by his uncle who opened a teahouse.

Although he was not recognized as a wealthy family, Lin Zhaoming treated him very well, and he lived the life of a young master since he was a child. Compared with Chen Jianan and Qiao Wen in the slums, the growth conditions were very different. It's a pity that in the original book, the father died and there was no cash machine to fill the vacancy. The gambling uncle quickly lost all the teahouses. In the end, he was born with a serious illness and had no money for treatment. He died soon, and Lin Zihui became completely helpless. , and was oppressed everywhere by his parents, wife and children, and his life was very difficult.

Of course, as the protagonist, he naturally worked hard in the face of adversity, slapping the face and abusing the scum all the way, from being a poor man to a big boss in the city.

In fact, his experience is similar to that of Chen Jianan, both of them have embarked on the road of the big brother because of a change of experience, but one is on the white road and the other is on the underworld, so there is a big difference, and because he is the leading actor, he always goes smoothly . The biggest function of the existence of the villain is to set off the protagonist, who is repeatedly abused by him.

When Qiao Wen was reading, he saw that Chen Jianan always lost to Lin Zihui, but it was actually quite puzzling. It took only two years for Chen Jianan to jump from a four-nine boy to a double-bonus red stick in the Hexing Society. Then, taking advantage of the Hong Kong government's crackdown on gangsters, he killed Zhao Shanhai and became the new leader of the Hexing Society. The Wo Xing Society in the Kowloon Walled City developed to the entire Hong Kong City, entered the real estate and entertainment industries, and turned pornography, gambling, and drugs underground. It was only in its twenties.

Such a powerful villain, in the fight with Lin Zihui, was repeatedly defeated, and was even shot to death in the end, which seemed unreasonable.

Of course, the hero is the biggest in Shuangwen, and all logic must give way to the aura of the hero.
